Passiflora lamp Poltronova, Superstudio 1966 Superarchitettura, luminous PMMA column, radical Italian lighting fixture, collectible design history piece, Salone del Mobile, pop flower shaped lamp
Not fully visible, nor entirely absent.
These objects aren’t simply on display: they hide, reveal, refract, disappear and reappear among textures and reflections.
Sensitive presences—engaged in a dialogue with surfaces, imagination, and time.
You don’t look at them. They observe you.

Elle Decor: Alchemica
Poltronova was present at Palazzo Bovara for the exhibition ALCHEMICA, curated by Patricia Urquiola. The installation featured a composition of two complete SAFARI sofas (Archizoom Associati), specially upholstered in custom violet eco-fur for the occasion, and the PASSIFLORA table lamps (Superstudio).
For the 2025 Milano Design Week, Elle Decor intertwined its vision with the metaphor of alchemy—an ancient practice exploring the transformation of matter as both a physical process and a symbol of growth and change. The exhibition was structured around the three fundamental stages of the alchemical process—Nigredo, Albedo, and Rubedo—each represented through spaces evoking the most symbolic rooms of the home.

XS is an exhibition presenting a selection of Poltronova’s iconic designs — like Passiflora by Superstudio, 1967 — alongside something unexpected.
🌼 The Passiflora lighting fixture comes from a painted cardboard prototype made for the exhibition “Superarchitettura” [December 1966], a manifesto of Radical Design.
🌼 The cardboard was replaced with a light–permeable material, transforming Passiflora into a truncated luminous column: a column whose deformed profile wavers between natural and artificial, in a game of allusions and ambiguities, corresponding to the statement of intent of Superstudio, summed up in the text “Invention Design and Evasion Design”.
